Frequently asked questions

The river has already peaked and the uphill wall is still wet. What is feeding it?

The Hill. Till cuts weep into the uphill wall after the Federal Dam pool has already peaked, so a 1938 cellar takes seepage from the cut while the terrace is still sitting in the held table. The dam sets the floor. The hill keeps adding.

The river is not high and the terrace is still wet. What is holding it?

The dam holds the level. With the pool kept up, July rain reaching the west-bank terrace has no drop to leave on, so it stands in the ground whatever the channel looks like. A regulated river does not fall the way an unregulated one does.

The Arsenal is fenced. Why is a downtown floor still damp in July?

Fill does not stop at the fence. Industrial ground still holds the dam pool, and a 1938 cellar on that terrace takes the Hudson from below. July rain then has no drop. The plant is the neighbor. The fill is the floor.
